Summary/Abstract: Staying in a prison environment represents a specific experience for the majority of legally convicted persons. Although the purpose of punishment is reflected in the achievement of the goals of special and general prevention, it should be borne in mind that adaptation to special living conditions such as restriction of freedom of movement and management of established life habits represent a complex new situation that affects the general and mental health of prisoners. Does prison affect prisoners' awareness of healthy lifestyle habits and values? How does prison affect a prisoner's ability to change their behavior? What rights do prisoners have in prison? Do they come out as better or worse persons? Do prison sentences affect the health of the family and does the rehabilitation process for prisoners succeed every time? These are all questions that will be addressed within the topic of this paper.
